        <h2>Kubernetes Basics</h2>
        <p>This tutorial provides a walkthrough of the basics of the Kubernetes cluster orchestration system. Each module contains some background information on major Kubernetes features and concepts, and includes an interactive online tutorial. These interactive tutorials let you manage a simple cluster and its containerized applications for yourself.</p>
        <p>Using the interactive tutorials, you can learn to:</p>
        <ul>
        <li>Deploy a containerized application on a cluster.</li>
        <li>Scale the deployment.</li>
        <li>Update the containerized application with a new software version.</li>
        <li>Debug the containerized application.</li>
        </ul>

        <h2>What can Kubernetes do for you?</h2>
        <p>With modern web services, users expect applications to be available 24/7, and developers expect to deploy new versions of those applications several times a day. Containerization helps package software to serve these goals, enabling applications to be released and updated without downtime. Kubernetes helps you make sure those containerized applications run where and when you want, and helps them find the resources and tools they need to work. Kubernetes is a production-ready, open source platform designed with Google's accumulated experience in container orchestration, combined with best-of-breed ideas from the community.</p>
